## Why teams look for an alternative to Clockify

Three differences that matter once your team grows.

### One approval level in Clockify

Clockify's timesheet approval starts on its Standard plan, at $5.49 per user per month billed annually. Each timesheet gets a single approval, with no further levels.

### Multi-level timesheet approvals

On every Beebole plan, including Free, admins approve submitted timesheets. Paid plans add approval steps in order, such as team lead, then project manager, then finance.

[See timesheet approvals](https://beebole.com/timesheet.md)

### Clockify stops at three project levels

Clockify organizes time in three fixed levels: clients, projects, and tasks. Tasks act as sub-projects inside a project, with no further levels below them.

### Unlimited project levels

Nest projects and tasks as deep as you need. Group people with tags, like department and team, and name each level yourself.

[See hierarchical tags](https://beebole.com/advanced-configurations.md)

### No custom roles in Clockify

Clockify has fixed, default roles and no custom ones. The project manager and team manager roles are only available on paid plans.

### Custom roles with your own permissions

Create roles with exactly the permissions each person needs, from editing their own timesheet to managing a team's. On Advanced, or Essential with an add-on.

[See custom roles](https://beebole.com/advanced-configurations.md)


## Three more reasons to choose Beebole instead of Clockify

Resource planning on the Free plan, suggested time entries, and an audit trail on all paid plans.

- Resource planning

Book people on projects for a set share of their time, and see who still has hours free. The [staffing timeline](/resource-planning.md) shows weeks or months ahead and flags overbooking. Use Gantt, Kanban, staffing, or list views to fit the way you work.

- AI-suggested entries

Beebole AI drafts [suggested time entries](/timesheet.md) from planned work, recurring habits, Kanban moves, the desktop app, the browser extension, and connected AI assistants. Each draft stays private until accepted.

- Audit trail

See who changed what and when across people, projects, time entries, rates, and settings. Each entry shows the old and new values, so you can trace any change. Beebole ensures [compliance and accountability](/security.md).
